Utilize your resources and ask the right questions fees, specify a period of time in which the entrance fee will be refundable to the resident on a declining basis. For example, if an entrance fee under this arrangement declines at the rate of 1 percent each month, after 6 months 94 percent of the entrance fee is refundable. Partially refundable entrance fees guarantee a specific percentage of the refund that will be returned within a certain period of time regardless of the term of residency. For example, 50 percent of the entrance fee may be refundable upon termination of the contract or to the estate upon the resident’s death.

Assess financial means and corresponding options.
Most CCRCs require payment of a one-time fee, usually called the entrance fee, before moving to the community. The entrance fee amount often depends on the level of care at the time of entry, type of housing chosen (with larger units requiring a larger fee) and agreement type. The entrance fee allows the CCRC to offer lower monthly fees and provide for the future needs of residents. State regulations can impact the terms of the entrance fee and in some states, refunds are called rebates. Entrance fees are typically structured in one of three ways: Declining scale refunds, also known as amortizing entrance
Housing Options Page 33
Full refunds offer just that, a full refund of the entrance fee. A fixed charge may be deducted before the refund is made, and the agreement generally states how long the refund is valid and under what conditions a refund is due. Entrance fees that offer full refunds are typically more expensive than those without refunds or those that are partially refundable or refundable on a declining basis.

Founder’s Note
The Perfect Fit The other day, I was talking to a reader who was struggling to decide if she wanted to “age in place” or make the move to one of the senior living options listed in Retirement Living Sourcebook. I shared with her one of my all-time favorite conversations with a reader. I was making a presentation to a community group when a woman approached me. She said, “My husband and I used your publication and visited dozens of the communities listed. We decided we aren’t going to make a move because all these communities are missing one thing that we feel is very important.” I asked, “What would that be?” She responded with a smile and a laugh, “Trick or Treaters!” That was well over 15 years ago, and communities have made monumental strides in developing intergenerational programming and activities (and there are even communities that invite Trick or Treaters on Halloween). However, the important perspective this reader shared is not the significance of Halloween—it’s the value of honoring your personal preferences—whatever they may be.
The good news is, this reader and her husband were able to identify and remodel a home in their existing neighborhood that could accommodate them for many years. Using the supportive services listed in our “Aging in Place” and “Resources” section, we all can maintain independence if that is our choice. For others, “Aging in Place” can be challenging and isolating. There are hundreds of senior living options throughout Maryland listed in Sourcebook. When learning about all the senior living options available, you want to carefully consider your preferences. Review locations, activities and amenities as you search for a community that is the perfect fit. Our cover story this issue features a woman who knew exactly what she wanted. Judith Stout wanted to keep moving. When a staph infection in her replacement hip socket nearly sidelined her active lifestyle, she turned to short-term rehabilitation at FutureCare Homewood to help her return home faster and stronger (see page 15). We hope our comprehensive listings, informative articles and helpful checklists lead you to the perfect fit. Happy Hunting! Steve Gurney Founder of Retirement Living Sourcebook

Moving On By Christy Brudin
As part of FutureCare’s VitalStrong program, Judith participated in a comprehensive physical therapy regimen that included working with a model car to practice getting in and out of a vehicle independently.

ometimes it is time to move on. When Judith Stout moved to FutureCare Homewood, she was barely moving. Today, she is running a volunteer program and working out three days a week. She is moving on. Judith is a native Marylander who lived in Dundalk for 49 years. She and her husband, Larry, raised two sons in their home in Dundalk. After her kids grew up, Judith got a job with Hallmark, stocking cards in stores. She worked for the greeting card giant for 18 years before retiring. When her husband passed away, Judith continued to live alone for over a decade. She is a proud breast cancer survivor. Several years ago, she also had a hip replacement surgery to address longstanding joint pain. Her surgery and her recovery went smoothly. “I was living in my house after the surgery, but my son wanted me to move to a place that was one level, so he found a senior living community near his home,” Judith recalled. She moved into independent living at Brightview 800-394-9990 | retirementlivingsourcebook.com

Severna Park in 2013. Since moving, Judith has enjoyed a much more active social life and participates in regular exercise classes. She also gives back to her community, serving as the coordinator of a volunteer program. To help residents who don’t have family members to take them shopping, Judith established a small grocery store with snack items and household products at Brightview. Judith’s active lifestyle was nearly sidelined when she developed a staph infection in her replacement hip socket. Although her doctors were unable to pinpoint the cause of the infection, they quickly realized that she would need a second surgery. She also needed an aggressive course of antibiotic treatment to address the infection and prevent a reoccurrence. Following her second hip replacement, Judith’s daughterin-law, Deana, recommended that she move to FutureCare for short-term rehabilitation. “Deana is a Vice President Continued on 17 15 6/21/18 2:13 PM

Resources Moving/Downsizing
Moving and Downsizing Professional help can make moving easy Moving can be a daunting task— no matter what your age—but it can be even more overwhelming for older adults who may be leaving a home they have lived in for decades. Luckily, the enormous growth in the senior population has led to the development of a wide variety of professional moving and real estate services designed specifically to help older adults and their families. Senior Move Managers®, Senior Real Estate Specialists®, and Certified Senior Housing Professionals are just a few of the professionals who are specially trained to help seniors with all the challenges of moving and downsizing. Senior Move Managers assist older adults and their families with the emotional and physical aspects of relocation. They can also help families who wish to declutter or reorganize a
home to better age in place. These professionals provide a multi-faceted approach to the move process, from space planning in the beginning to post-move support and advocacy. By addressing all aspects of the moving process, Senior Move Managers minimize the chaos and stress of moving. From initial planning to downsizing to the physical aspects of moving, Senior Move Managers create a comprehensive plan that includes selling or disposing of unwanted items and setting up the new residence. Many Senior Move Managers are also movers. Others work closely with a reputable local moving company to complete that aspect of the job. Senior Real Estate Specialists are Realtors who are specially trained to manage the sale of a home for consumers over the age of 50. They
bring targeted knowledge, senior experience and marketing savvy to each sale. These specialists have extensive knowledge about everything from reverse mortgages and the importance of universal design to the uses of pensions, 401k accounts and IRAs in real estate transactions. Finally, Certified Senior Housing Professionals (CSHPs) are real estate professionals who have completed extensive coursework on how best to assist older adults and their families in the home buying or selling process. CSHPs understand that late-in-life moves can be more complicated and require greater physical and emotional energy than traditional moves. They are trained to help older adults navigate the complexities of moving by addressing their fears, concerns, needs and goals. Continued on 19

Elder Law Resources
Understand Estate Planning Elder law attorneys can help Estate planning means much more than preparing a Last Will and Testament or tax planning for the disposition of your assets upon your death. Estate planning is the process of accumulating and disposing of an estate to maximize the goals of the estate owner. The goals of estate planning typically include making sure the greatest amount of the estate passes to intended beneficiaries, often including paying the least amount of taxes. Estate planning must also provide for administration and protection of assets during an individual’s lifetime and for decisionmaking in the event of a disabling illness. Any complete estate plan should contain: 1. A Last Will and Testament, 2. A durable health care power of attorney naming an agent (and an alternate agent) responsible for medical decision-making, 3. A living will or other advance directive giving instructions concerning the type of care one wishes to receive (or avoid) in the event of a terminal illness, and 4. A durable financial power of attorney naming an agent (and an alternate) responsible for asset and financial management if one is unable to do such things for oneself. Estate planning may also include the creation of trusts. Estate planning is an opportunity to make wishes known and to determine what person(s) will be responsible for carrying out those directives. You are able to state your preferences concerning the type of care you receive, what types of medical care you do not wish to receive and can authorize someone to act as your agent in carrying out those wishes. Should you fail to do such planning, then there may be confusion as to what your wishes might have been and who you would have preferred to act as your decision-maker. In fact, without such information, your wishes 800-394-9990 | retirementlivingsourcebook.com
18-0689-01.indd 21
may never be known. If you do not leave a Last Will and Testament, your assets will be distributed according to the laws of intestate succession in your state. There are laws in each state governing the rights of surviving spouses, heirs and next of kin in the absence of a Last Will and Testament. Probate Probate laws, practice and costs vary from state to state. A qualified Elder Law attorney will be able to advise you as to the probate laws, practices and costs in your state. What You Need To Know In preparing an estate plan, it is essential that all of your assets are considered. You should do a complete inventory of all that you own before contacting your estate planner. Your estate consists not only of your home, your car and your bank accounts. Your estate also includes the value of life insurance policies, investments that you may own (including those held in joint tenancy with other persons), your IRAs and other retirement accounts, and any other assets over which you can exercise control. It is extremely helpful for you to have a centralized and secured record of all of your financial accounts; insurance policies; credit, debit or loan accounts; safe deposit box; and account IDs and passwords. You will need to make decisions about what to include in your estate plan. First, you should determine who will inherit your property upon your death. You must also be certain that your spouse or heirs are capable of managing financial affairs. If capacity or vulnerability is an issue, you may want to name a trustee to handle financial affairs for him or her. You have to designate an Executor or Personal Representative to administer your estate. An alternate Executor or Personal Representative should also be appointed. Special arrangements
may be needed if there are particular family issues, such as a second marriage by either spouse. You will also need to list any specific gifts you want to make to family or non-family members and/or to charities. Once these decisions are made and your inventory is completed, your attorney will be able to advise you as to the best technique to use in planning your estate. You should consider your preferences concerning health care options and decide who will be your decision makers, and do the same with regard to your finances in the event of a disability. Finally, you should give thought to the difficult questions of what type of care you would want or not want in the event of terminal illness. If you have special desires concerning disposition of your remains, such as burial in a certain place or possible cremation, these should be brought up during your planning conference as well. These are complicated and personal issues. The advice of a qualified Elder Law attorney is essential to protect your financial health and welfare and to ensure that your health care wishes are known and carried out. The Role of the Elder Law Attorney Elder Law attorneys who specialize in estate planning are trained and experienced with wills, trusts, powers of attorney, advance directives or living wills, and the intricacies of estate and inheritance taxes. They may recommend accounting services, financial planners or insurance purchases, but they do not earn their fees by selling such products. As a result, you are more likely to get thorough and unbiased advice from a qualified Elder Law attorney. Many Elder Law attorneys have developed special expertise in estate and disability planning and have obtained the specialized knowledge and experience to provide clients with Continued on 24 21 6/21/18 2:16 PM

Elder Law What is elder or special needs law? Legal issues that affect people as they age and people with special needs are growing in number. Our laws and regulations are becoming more complex, and each state has different laws. Actions taken with regard to a single matter may have unintended legal outcomes. It is important for attorneys working with seniors, people with special needs, and their families to have a broad understanding of the laws that may have an impact on a given situation to avoid future problems. Elder and Special Needs Law encompasses many different fields of law. Some of these include: • Preservation/transfer of assets seeking to avoid spousal impoverishment when one spouse enters a nursing home • Medicaid • Medicare claims and appeals
• Social Security and disability claims and appeals • Supplemental and long-term health insurance issues • Tax planning • Disability planning, including use of durable powers of attorney, living trusts, “living willsâ€? for financial management and health care decisions, and other means of delegating management and decision-making to another in case of incompetency or incapacity • Access to health care in a managed care environment • Conservatorships and guardianships • Estate planning, including planning for the management of one’s estate during life and its disposition on death through the use of trusts, wills and other planning documents • Probate and administration of
estates • Administration and management of trusts • Long-term care placements in nursing homes and life-care communities • Nursing home issues, including questions of patients’ rights and nursing home quality • Elder abuse and fraud recovery cases • Housing issues, including discrimination and home equity conversions • Age discrimination in employment • Retirement, including public and private retirement benefits, survivor benefits and pension benefits • Health law • Mental health law Source: www.naela.org

Find an Elder Law Provider Use our step-by-step guide: Step 1 – Know Your Needs
■ Who will handle the case?
■ Organize and outline all the information pertinent to your situation.
■ Has that attorney handled matters of this kind in the past?
■ If you are calling on behalf of a loved one, make sure that you have as many specific details as possible.
■ If a trial may be involved, does the attorney do trial work? If not, who does the trial work? If so, how many trials has he or she handled?
Step 2 – Call Attorneys
■ Is that attorney a member of the local bar association, a health advocacy committee, or trust and estates committee?
■ Use our list to call some attorneys. ■ It is not unusual to speak only to an assistant during an initial call. Here are some questions to ask this person: ■ How long has the attorney been in practice? ■ Does his or her practice emphasize a particular area of law? ■ How long has he or she been in this field? ■ What percentage of his or her practice is devoted to Elder or Special Needs Law? ■ Is there a fee for the first consultation, and if so how much is it? ■ Given the nature of your problem, what information should you bring with you to the initial consultation? Step 3 – Initial Consultation ■ When you have found a prospective attorney, make an appointment to see him or her. After you have explained your situation, ask: ■ What will it take to resolve it? ■ Are there any alternate courses of action? ■ What are the advantages and disadvantages of each possibility? ■ How many attorneys are in the office?

In addition, Elder Law attorneys are sensitive to the special needs of elderly clients and their families. Be certain to assure yourself that the attorney you choose has such experience and training. Attorneys will ask clients for a great deal of information and will request original documents such as deeds, 24 18-0689-01.indd 24
■ What is the estimate of the cost to resolve your problem and how long will it take? Step 4 – Discussing Fees ■ There are many different ways of charging fees and each attorney will choose to work differently. Be aware of how your attorney charges. Ask: ■ Do you bill weekly, monthly, or upon completion of work? ■ Do you charge by the hour? Are there different hourly rates for work performed by attorneys, paralegals and secretaries? ■ Is there a flat fee for this service? ■ Will there be any out-of-pocket expenses (charges for copies, postage, messenger fees, court fees, deposition fees and other such costs)? ■ Do you require a retainer? Step 5 – Make It A Good Experience ■ Once you decide to hire an attorney, ask that your arrangement be put in writing.

Understanding Elder Law Find an attorney to meet your legal needs An elder law attorney is an individual who specializes in areas of the law that are particularly relevant to senior citizens and their family members. These attorneys generally focus their practices in a few of the following areas: estate planning, long-term care planning, social security, public and private pensions, Medicare, Medicaid, Medigap insurance, long-term care insurance, age discrimination, durable powers of attorney, living wills, conservatorship and guardianship, or abuse. Elder law attorneys can offer an especially sensitive ear concerning the sometimes difficult decisions involved in one’s later years. While dispensing legal advice, they are also able to refer clients to other professional and/or non-legal resources that are available to help meet their needs. Because of the expense of legal services, you want to be absolutely certain that your situation necessitates the assistance of a legal professional before hiring an attorney. Before consulting an attorney, you should consider the following questions: Is this a complex legal issue? Is it likely that you will have to go to court? Are there non-legal resources available to help you? Can you resolve this difficulty on your own
Elder law attorneys can offer an especially sensitive ear concerning the sometimes difficult decisions involved in one’s later years. or with the help of a family member? To pick the right attorney and save yourself time and money, you must know your needs. If you aren’t familiar with your own situation, it can be difficult to explain it to someone else. Know your own financial limitations and the financial benefits of engaging
the services of a specific attorney. In other words, only buy what you need and what you can afford. If you only want a will that names your spouse as your sole beneficiary and there are no other needs, you probably don’t need an expensive package. Be a smart consumer.

life plan communities HOUSING
Life Plan Communities Offering diverse lifestyle options Life Plan Communities are properties offering a combination of living options for older adults. These communities offer an active lifestyle for residents, as well as a wide array of amenities and services. Life Plan Communities were formerly known as Continuing Care Retirement Communities (CCRCs). Following a two-year research and review process, a task force led by LeadingAge and Mather LifeWays, identified a new name for CCRCs that would resonate with the boomer target audience. The new name better reflects the communities and their residents—individuals who are active, engaged and focused on the future. Living options available at Life Plan Communities may include independent living, assisted living
and skilled nursing services. These different levels of care are all offered on a single campus. Residents have the option to have all their current or future healthcare needs met without ever leaving campus. Life Plan Communities afford residents endless opportunities to remain active and involved. These communities generally appeal to young, healthy older adults. Amenities vary widely but often include swimming pools, fitness centers, gardening areas, and golf courses or putting greens. Additionally, residents have access to hundreds of clubs and activities—from art classes to yoga classes and from drama clubs to walking groups. Residents are also very involved in the operation and management of Life Plan
Communities through resident boards or councils. Finally, Life Plan Communities are generally integrated into the larger community. With active residents, these communities can focus on giving back and acting as a socially responsible neighbor. Life Plan Communities give older adults the freedom and security to live active, healthy lives. They are the perfect option for individuals who want to plan ahead for future care needs, while focusing on enjoying every day.

life plan communities HOUSING
a Guide to Choosing the right Contract By Kelly Hagler you want to move to a senior living community, but that’s just the first of many decisions you’ll need to make. no matter which community you move to, you’ll have to sign a contract that stipulates the services you’ll receive and what you’ll pay—now and down the road. this guide can help you navigate the different contracts you may encounter as you embark on your search for a new home. continuing care retirement communities (ccRcs), also known as life plan communities, offer multiple levels of care all on one campus. this setting is generally attractive to seniors who like to plan ahead. ccRcs are most useful for seniors who can come in at the independent living level and move through higher levels of care as needed over time. “the ccRc is a promise of future care, inclusive of the various levels,” says marc Herrera, vice president of skilled nursing administration and risk
management at be.group, an operator of southern california retirement communities. “all other types of senior living are month-to- month arrangements.” most ccRcs are nonprofit organizations with business models surrounding a mission of senior care and service, says Daniel s. ogus, executive vice president and chief operating officer at be.group. all levels of care in a ccRc are usually provided by the same management. ccRc contracts are more complex than other types of senior living agreements because they offer more services. there are three common types of ccRc agreements that typically secure long-term living accommodations, services and health care for residents. 1. type a (life care agreements) according to the commission on accreditation of Rehabilitation facilities, type a contracts include
overall housing, residential services (amenities) and unlimited healthrelated services. type a contracts provide a sense of stability, as future costs are much more predictable regardless of any changes in needed services or care. Residents pay a much larger entrance fee compared to other contract types, but the monthly fee is flat through all levels of care. 2. type B (modified agreements) as with type a, type B contracts include housing and residential services. unlike type a, type B does not cover all future health care needs but does offer discounted or waived rates for those services. While type B contracts have a lower entrance fee than type a, should an increase in care become necessary, it would be the resident’s responsibility to cover costs. Continued on page 46

The Right Contract ... Continued from page 39 3. Type C (Fee-For-Service Agreements) Like both A and B, Type C contracts cover housing, residential services and health care. “Basically, it’s pay as you go,” says Herrera. Residents pay a smaller entrance fee in the beginning. Then, if you don’t need to use higher levels of care, there is no additional cost to you beyond your monthly service fee for using amenities like transportation or activities. While Type C contracts will save you on up-front costs, the resident risks the potential for large costs down the road if there is a sudden need for care. Steps before you sign Regardless of the environment you choose, moving to a senior living community is a big decision that requires a lot of thought and even more research. Here are some important steps to take before signing a contract. 1. Consult a financial adviser. Joining a senior living community is a serious investment. Spend time with your trusted financial adviser. “Your biggest pitfall is not understanding how health care, especially Medicare, works in our country,” says Ogus. “How much money do you have and how much will you need? Understand what benefits you’re getting from Medicare as well as your retirement packages.” 2. Research the organization and management. The financial stability of the community as well as the continuity of management are two essential factors to vet thoroughly. Is the management able to make improvements regularly? Will you be working with the same 46 18-0690-01.indd 46
The financial stability of the community and the continuity of management are two essential factors to vet thoroughly.
staff regularly, or is there a high turnover rate? 3. Understand services covered. Asking about guaranteed services will alleviate many of those “what if ” questions: What if you get dementia? What if you become debilitated? Ask management specific questions about what’s covered in your contract beyond care services. Understand how they charge for specialized programming and activities. 4. Find out how refunds work. Signing a CCRC contract is a big decision—so what if you change your mind? 5. Ask about a benevolence program. Many nonprofit CCRCs offer benevolence programs if a resident exhausts his or her financial resources. “Say someone has lived in the community for 15–20 years and now she cannot afford to pay at that higher level—this program subsidizes her as she continues to live at the same level,” says Herrera. 6. Make sure your voice will be heard in the future.
Some communities have their own associations, and residents have the right to be represented on boards. “It’s collaborative management,” says Herrera. “Many communities are managed with a lot of advice from residents.” 7. Determine what role your family will play. “We can’t share information with children if the resident doesn’t give us permission to do so,” says Ogus. “If a resident has a condition change, we hope he or she will allow us to share with one of their adult children.” Make sure your family understands the financial commitment and how your contract works. 8. Explore, visit, ask questions, repeat. “We want [potential residents] to make the right decision,” says Ogus. “We want them to choose us, but we’d rather them not choose us if it’s not the right decision for them. An unhappy resident can spoil it for the rest of the community. It should be a lifestyle decision, not a sentence.” 800-394-9990 | retirementlivingsourcebook.com

assisted Living offering needed assistance and rewarding activities assisted living communities offer a vital option for older adults who need some assistance with daily living. While the specific amenities will vary, all assisted living communities offer basic services, including meals, supervision and security, and help with personal care needs. for many seniors, the help available at an assisted living facility can allow them to continue to live their best life. in most states, assisted living communities are registered, licensed or certified by an appropriate department or agency of the state that has a process for issuance of initial licenses and for renewing existing licenses. this process provides basic protections for consumers. Residents of assisted living communities are generally seniors who need some assistance with basic activities, frequently called the
activities of daily living (or aDls). some communities may accept residents with alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia. in fact, some communities may specialize in serving individuals with specific medical conditions, including dementia. a few communities serve individuals of any age with developmental disabilities. When reviewing assisted living communities, consumers should ask about any specializations the community may have. the services and activities provided in assisted living communities help to promote the quality of life and independence of the residents. one key offering is 24-hour supervision of the residents and the property. Resident safety and security is a priority at all assisted living communities. all communities also offer three meals a day in a group dining room.
Woodholme Gardens
However, dining options can vary dramatically in terms of the meals available and the costs associated with meal plans. finally, all assisted living communities offer personal care services, also known as help with the aDls. these services include assistance with bathing, dressing and toileting. other services and activities available at some assisted living communities include: • Medication management, or assistance with self-administration of medicine • coordination of services by outside health care providers • assistance with arranging medical, health, and dental care services • social services • transportation services Continued on page 68

not provided at these communities before selecting one. Assisted living communities are a bridge between living at home and living in a nursing home. Assisted living communities do not typically provide the level of continuous skilled nursing care found in nursing homes and hospitals. For instance, if a prospective resident needs constant care, a nursing home may be a more viable option. There is no set standard for assisted living accommodations. Therefore, options can vary greatly from one assisted living community to the next. For instance, some

communities offer private rooms featuring kitchenettes and private bathrooms, while others offer shared units or shared bathrooms. Consumers must consider the prospective resident’s personal needs, financial means and personal preferences before selecting a community.

Nursing & rehabilitation specialized care for individuals who need daily assistance at a nursing home, care is administered by professionals under the direction of a physician. many facilities also offer sub-acute, respite, rehabilitation and other short-term care. Rehabilitation services can be especially helpful for individuals who are recovering from surgery, an illness or any other life-changing event. Who is nursing care for? these homes serve as permanent residences for individuals who are too sick or frail to live at home, or as temporary facilities during a recovery period. some enter a nursing home for a short-term stay after a surgery or illness, while others enter on a more permanent basis. Who Pays for nursing care? medicare, medicaid, private insurance and personal assets are
all used under various circumstances to pay for services in a nursing care facility. if a facility is not certified by medicare and medicaid, the care will have to be paid for entirely with personal funds. in general, medicare pays for skilled nursing care following hospitalization for the same illness or condition at 100 percent of the cost for days 1 – 20. some long-term care insurance pays for nursing home care; insurance payments are usually a fixed amount for a specified number of qualified days. the basic daily rate is the standard charge the nursing home bills to all residents, which covers the fundamental services every resident receives, including rent for the room, housekeeping, meals and general nursing care. it is important to understand all the services and
Rehabilitation services can be especially helpful for individuals who are recovering from surgery, an illness or any other life-changing event. amenities that are not included in the basic daily rate. What to look for in nursing care Before choosing a home, contact the long-term care ombudsman program of your area agency on aging. ombudsman programs promote the highest quality of life and care for residents of nursing facilities and can help families and staff with inquiries and complaints.

HOUSING Nursing & Rehabilitation
Paying for Nursing Home Care Nursing home care can be expensive. There are many ways you can pay for nursing home care. For example, you can use your own money, you may be able to get help from your state, or you may use longterm care insurance. Most people who enter nursing homes begin by paying for their care out-of-pocket. As you use your resources (like bank accounts and stocks) over a period of time, you may eventually become eligible for Medicaid. Will Medicare pay for nursing home care? Medicare generally doesn’t cover longterm care stays in a nursing home. Even if it doesn’t cover nursing home care, you’ll need health coverage for hospital care, doctor services, and medical supplies while you’re in the nursing home. Part A covers skilled care provided in a skilled nursing facility (SNF) under certain conditions for a limited time. Skilled care is nursing and therapy care that can only be safely and effectively performed by, or under the supervision of, professionals or technical personnel. It’s health care given when you need skilled nursing or skilled therapies to treat, manage, and observe your condition, and evaluate your care. Medicare covers certain daily skilled care services on a short-term basis (up to 100 days in a benefit period). For more information on Medicare’s coverage of SNF care, visit Medicare. gov or call 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800633-4227). Personal resources You can use your personal money and savings to pay for nursing home care. Some insurance companies let you use your life insurance policy to pay for long-term care. Ask your insurance agent how this works. Important: Be sure to get help before using either of these options. There are important issues you need to understand. 80 18-0690-01.indd 80
Help from your state (Medicaid) Medicaid is a joint federal and state program that helps with medical costs for some people with limited income and resources. Most health care costs are covered if you qualify for both Medicare and Medicaid. Most, but not all, nursing homes accept Medicaid payment. Even if you pay out-of-pocket or with long-term care insurance, you eventually may “spend down” your assets while you’re at the nursing home, so it’s good to know whether the home will accept Medicaid. Check with the nursing home to see if they accept people with Medicaid. Medicaid programs vary state to state. Most often, eligibility is based on your income and personal resources. Many states have higher Medicaid income limits for nursing home residents. You may be eligible
for Medicaid coverage in a nursing home even if you haven’t qualified for other Medicaid services in the past. Sometimes you won’t be eligible for Medicaid until you’ve spent some of your personal resources on health care. Generally, even if you’re eligible for Medicaid, all of your income (except for a monthly personal needs allowance and amounts considered necessary to support your spouse and family living in the community) will go to pay your nursing home expenses and Medicaid will cover the rest. To get more information on Medicaid eligibility in your state, call your local Medicaid office. Information excerpted from a Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services publication.

Dispelling Nursing Care Myths Get the facts Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation centers have advanced dramatically in terms of clinical practices and the overall approach to providing for the needs and wants of residents. Yet, many misperceptions about “nursing homes” persist. Separating fact from fiction will help you stay open to all of your care options. Some common myths and the corresponding facts are detailed below. Myth: Nursing and post-acute care centers are like hospitals. Fact: While Skilled Nursing and post-acute care centers do offer in-depth medical care, they are very different from hospitals. Today’s centers offer home-like comforts and a less-structured atmosphere. Skilled Nursing Care centers are residentand community-focused, with ample
opportunities for physical and social stimulation. Myth: Skilled Nursing Care center patients never leave or go out on trips. Fact: Skilled Nursing Care centers care for a variety of patients, each with different needs. Some will stay only for a month recovering from an injury or illness; other patients, like those with serious medical conditions, might require a lengthier stay of a year or more. Additionally, many residents are able to leave the center for an outing or to visit loved ones or friends. Myth: Skilled Nursing Care center patients seem confused. Fact: As people age, many slow down physically, get tired more easily, or are not able to express themselves

Memory Care Specialized Care
Memory Care Knowing when it is time As Alzheimer’s disease or dementia progresses, there often comes a time when the patient will need more care than can be provided at home. For instance, Alzheimer’s patients frequently need 24-hour supervision to ensure their safety. Individuals with late-stage Alzheimer’s or dementia may even need intensive care around the clock. While it may be difficult for family caregivers to turn to a residential care facility to care for their loved one, it is often the best choice for both the patient and the caregiver. The questions below may be helpful when determining if a move to residential care is a good option: • Is the person with dementia becoming unsafe in their current home? • Is the health of the person with
dementia or my health as a caregiver at risk? • Are the person’s care needs beyond my physical abilities? • Am I becoming a stressed, irritable and impatient caregiver? • Am I neglecting work responsibilities, my family and myself? • Would the structure and social interaction at a care facility benefit the person with dementia? Even if a family has planned for a move, making the transition to a residential care facility can be a stressful experience. Caregivers may feel guilty and wonder if they are doing the right thing. These feelings are common. Try to remain focused on the fact that this decision is ultimately about making sure the patient receives the best possible care.

Choosing a Memory Care Facility A Consumer Checklist: When choosing a memory care facility, there are a number of factors to consider, including the staff, the facility, the programs and the type of treatment residents receive. Use this checklist to review facilities.

■ Are the resident rooms clean and spacious? ■ Are residents allowed to bring personal items with them, such as photos and bedding? ■ Is the food appetizing? ■ Is the dining area a pleasant environment? ■ Can family and friends join residents for mealtime? ■ Can the facility accommodate special dietary needs? ■ Does staff provide assistance with feeding if necessary?
■ Is personal care and assistance provided?
Step 3 – Ask More Questions and Decide
■ Is medical care provided?
■ Are family and friends able to participate in resident care?
■ Is care personalized to meet specific resident needs, abilities and interests? ■ Is the staff specifically trained in dementia care? ■ Is there a physician and/or nurse practitioner on the premises and a registered nurse on site at all times? ■ What is the ratio of residents to staff? ■ Is staff equipped to handle challenging behaviors? ■ Are planned activities scheduled, and do they actually take place? ■ Are activities designed to meet specific needs, interests and abilities of residents? ■ Are activities available on the weekends or in the evenings? ■ Is transportation available for medical appointments or personal shopping?

Ask about any situation or condition that would lead a resident to be discharged, including behavior changes and financial circumstances. ■ Is staff available to escort residents to the Emergency Room, if needed? ■ Is end-of-life/hospice care available on site, if needed? Source: Information adapted from the Alzheimer’s Association (www.alz.org).

Hospice Specialized Care
Hospice Care Improving the quality of life remaining A patient and family may turn to hospice care when the goals of patient care have switched from curing to comforting. Hospice involves a special system of supportive services, including pain and symptom management, social services, and emotional and spiritual support. Any individual of any age with a diagnosis of a terminal disease may turn to hospice. How Does One Receive Hospice Care? Medicare, Medicaid or private insurance generally require a prognosis of six months or less for services to be covered. In addition to traditional medical hospices, there is a non-medical hospice program in Montgomery County that offers support for patients with a year’s prognosis or less who may choose to continue their curative treatments. Hospice is unique in that care and support are provided to the entire family, not just the patient. A team of skilled professionals and volunteers work to serve the special needs of everyone involved. Choice is at the center of the hospice approach — a person faced with a life-limiting illness is encouraged to remain in control of his or her life. As care is usually provided in one’s
home, many hospice patients live out their lives in the comfort of familiar daily routines, surrounded by their treasured possessions along with family and friends. However, hospice services may also be provided in long-term care facilities or in-patient hospice residential settings. What Services are Provided? Hospice team members focus primarily on managing the patient’s pain and symptoms with medication, medical supplies and equipment. Other services, such as speech and physical therapy, are available if necessary. If managing the symptoms within the home becomes impossible, hospice providers can offer short-term inpatient care. While family members learn how to properly care for the patient, information and support is also available to help everyone deal with the emotional, psychosocial and spiritual aspects of dying. Surviving loved ones will receive bereavement care and counseling from the hospice professionals. How Do I Pay for Hospice? Most services are fully or partially covered by Medicare, Medicaid, private insurers or prepaid health plans. The non-medical services
available in Montgomery County are free and delivered by a staff of trained volunteers. For traditional hospice services, financial assistance is available. The National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization notes that, “Eighty percent of people who use hospice care are over the age of 65, and are thus entitled to the services offered by the Medicare Hospice Benefit. This benefit covers virtually all aspects of hospice care with little out-of-pocket expense.” To receive the Medicare Hospice Benefit, patients must be eligible for Medicare Part A, have a terminal disease or condition with a less than six months prognosis, and sign a document certifying that they are choosing hospice care instead of routine Medicare benefits. Patients may only receive covered benefits from a Medicare-approved hospice program. In addition to Medicare’s coverage, hospice services are also generally covered by Medicaid or private insurers. Adapted from Caring Connection’s and the American Cancer Society’s websites. For more information, see www.caringinfo.org or the information on hospice care at www.cancer.org.
Myths and Facts About Hospice Myth: Hospice is where you go when there is “nothing else to be done.” Reality: Hospice is the “something more” that can be done for the patient and the family when the illness cannot be cured. It is a concept based on comfort-oriented care. Referral into hospice is a movement into another mode of therapy, which may be more appropriate for terminal care. Myth: Families should be isolated from a dying patient. Reality: Hospice staff believe that when family members (including children) experience the dying process in a caring environment, it helps counteract the fear of their own mortality and the mortality of their loved one.

Specialized Care Hospice
Hospice Care Use this checklist to review options: Many individuals and families could benefit from hospice care but are unaware of how to access hospice services. Some are afraid to discuss it, some wait for a physician to suggest it, and some don’t know that they can initiate hospice care on their own, as long as eligibility standards are met.
■ Are there any services, medications or equipment that the hospice DOES NOT provide?
If hospice seems like the right choice at this time, here is how to proceed:
■ How long will visits last?
DETERMINING NEED
■ When the hospice orders medication, where can it be picked up, or is it delivered by the hospice?

Pay For Home Care Understanding Costs Can Help With Decision Making As the decision to remain at home is becoming an increasingly popular option, it is important to understand the costs of care and your payment options while researching different home healthcare companies. Costs for companion care are covered primarily by private payments. Home healthcare must also be paid for with private funds, unless it is prescribed by a physician and provided by a Medicare-certified agency. Longterm care insurance policies may cover companion care and home health care. If you qualify for Medicaid, a government program for low-income individuals, it may subsidize some of your home care needs. Since laws vary from state to state, you will need to contact your local Area Agency on Aging for more information concerning government benefits. Skilled nursing care will be paid
for by Medicare as long as it is determined to be “intermittent skilled care,” which includes occupational, respiratory, speech and physical therapy. To be covered, care must be ordered by a doctor. Individuals who meet income requirements may be eligible to receive skilled nursing services through Medicaid. Major medical health insurance will also
cover a limited number of skilled home visits. Costs for these services vary greatly depending upon coverage by Medicare, Medicaid and private insurance. Contact your local Office on Aging or State Department of Health to find out if there are funds from social services block grants available to cover home care costs.

Planning For Care At Home by Phyllis Mensh Brostoff, CISW, CMC, Aging Life Care Association™ Member, Fellow of the Leadership Academy If you took a poll of older adults and asked each person if they wanted to remain in their own home until the end of their life, most people would say, “of course.” That is a wonderful goal, which often takes a lot of sound planning to be successful. Anything can get in the way—accidents, illness, lack of energy, declining physical abilities—of achieving your desired independence. It is hard to give up even a little autonomy, but asking for assistance can help keep you where you want to be—in your own home. What if You Become Homebound? If you are recovering from an acute illness, you may be eligible for home health services that are paid for by the Medicare program. An Aging Life Care Manager™ can help you access licensed home health services by facilitating a conversation with your physician about your need for skilled
nursing services, physical therapy, occupational therapy, and/or speech therapy in your home. This is an important conversation to have with your doctor and discharge planner if you are in the hospital or a nursing facility and need to decide on and plan for services in your home once you are discharged. However, Medicare will only pay for these services if you are “homebound.” Homebound is defined as only leaving your home for “medical treatment or short, infrequent absences for non-medical reasons, like attending religious services.” You may also receive help from a home health aide under the supervision of a professional nurse or therapist. A physical or occupational therapist can evaluate your home and recommend equipment (such as grab bars in the bathroom) that will improve your safety.
Accessing services These services must be obtained from a state licensed home health agency certified to provide Medicarereimbursed services. They may be freestanding agencies, or they may be part of a large, hospital-based organization. Licensed home health services are usually time-limited, ending when you have met the goals of treatment and the need for the skilled care has ended. If you have enrolled in a Medicare Continued on 122

Choosing Home Care Use these questions to interview providers: Before hiring a home care provider, you will want to learn more about their services, reputation and track record. The questions below will help you have productive conversations with providers and their professional references. ■ How long has this provider been serving the community? ■ Does this provider supply literature explaining its services, eligibility requirements, fees and funding sources? Many providers furnish patients with a detailed “Bill of Rights” that outlines the rights and responsibilities of the providers, patients and caregivers. ■ How does this provider select and train its employees? ■ Does it protect its workers with written personnel policies, benefits packages and malpractice insurance? ■ Are nurses or therapists required to evaluate the patient’s home care needs? If so, what does this entail? ■ Do they consult the patient’s physicians and family members? ■ Does this provider include the patient and his or her family members in developing the plan of care?
Many providers furnish patients with a detailed “Bill of Rights” that outlines the rights and responsibilities of the providers, patients and caregivers.
■ How does this provider ensure patient confidentiality? ■ If the hired caregiver becomes ill or otherwise unavailable, what alternate arrangements can be made? ■ Are social security, federal and state taxes, and unemployment insurance paid so the family is not legally responsible? ■ Is there verification that the paid caregivers can legally work in the U.S.? ■ If the hired caregiver is injured, who is responsible? Remember that many homeowners’ insurance policies exclude such injuries via “domestic employee exclusions.”
■ Are patients involved in making care plan changes?
■ Are criminal history background checks, state abuse registry checks, and prior work reference checks completed?
■ Is the patient’s course of treatment documented, detailing the specific tasks to be carried out by each professional caregiver? Does this provider take time to educate family members on the care being administered to the patient?
■ Is there bonding and insurance in place that would cover any injury to the client, damage, or theft? When an agency says they are “bonded,” family members should be sure that this covers injury or damages.
■ Does this provider assign supervisors to oversee the quality of care patients are receiving in their homes? If so, how often do these individuals make visits? ■ Who can the patient and his or her family members call with questions or complaints?
Source: Information adapated from the National Association for Home Care & Hospice (NAHC). For more information, visit www.nahc.org.
■ How does the agency follow up on and resolve problems? ■ What are the financial procedures of this provider? ■ Does the provider furnish written statements explaining all of the costs and payment plan options associated with home care? ■ What procedures does this provider have in place to handle emergencies? Are its caregivers available 24 hours a day, seven days a week?

Aging in Place Home Care
Assistive Technology Can Help The world of technology is exploding with options that could allow seniors and baby boomers to live in their homes longer. So why aren’t they all taking advantage of available technologies? The simple answer is because most of the people who would benefit from these technologies are unaware that they exist. We are all familiar with the “I’ve fallen and I can’t get up” commercial advertising wearable pendants that can be pressed when a person needs help. But there is so much more available today. There are currently devices available that can visually and audibly alert individuals when it is time to take their medication. Given the fact that approximately 40 percent of nursing home admissions are the result of individuals being unable to take medication without supervision, these devices can help more seniors remain at home. Sold in varying shapes and sizes, holding large to small pills,
medication management devices can beep, flash, and text patients and caregivers when it is time to take a medication or text when a medication is missed. They can be purchased with monthly services to allow distant caregivers the ability to manage medications. Devices range from $299.00 to $999.00. Tracking devices are also available that allow people to be found quickly if they wander. These tracking devices can be worn as watches, placed in a shoe as an insert, worn on a belt or worn around the neck as a pendant. According to the Montgomery County Police – Project Lifesaver, it is imperative that an individual is found quickly, because for each moment lost, the search grid expands to a size that makes it almost impossible for individuals to be found. With that in mind, when choosing a tracking device, it is important to know how soon the device will notify caregivers the person is wandering. Very few of
the devices currently on the market can give an exact location. Newer models also include two-way voice communication. The assistive technology market also includes devices that can monitor health, sleep patterns and movement in the house. House sensors can monitor water leakage, movement in the bathroom, movement in and out of a bed or a chair, as well as the opening and closing of cabinets or doors. Finally, there are sensors that can turn off appliances if there has been no movement in a certain amount of time. Using the power of new technologies, caregivers can provide independent, safe living environments for their parents or other loved ones and still have peace of mind. By working with loved ones and professionals, seniors can easily create secure environments where they can age in place.

Medicare and Home Care Know the coverage options When it comes to understanding Medicare coverage, many individuals can find themselves confused by a complex web of information. This especially applies to those who want to know if they are eligible for Medicare coverage when entering a nursing home or receiving home health care. Below is some helpful information on whether you can use your home health care benefits if you have Medicare and what services and products it will cover. First, you can use your home health care benefits if all of the following applies to your situation. Your doctor must prescribe that you need medical care at home and create a care plan. The care you need has to be intermittent and in the form of skilled nursing care, physical therapy, occupational therapy or speech therapy. The home health agency must be Medicare-certified and you must be homebound, or unable to leave the home unassisted. Once you have established those requirements, it is important to understand what Medicare will actually cover, which includes the following: • Home health aide services on a part-time or intermittent basis, as long as there is a skilled need • Medical social services • Certain medical supplies 800-394-9990 | retirementlivingsourcebook.com
18-0691-01.indd 121
It is important for older adults and their families to fully understand which home health care benefits will be covered by Medicare and which will require private payments.
• Durable medical equipment (wheelchair, walker, bedside commode, etc.) Given the services and products that Medicare does cover, it is also valuable to take note of what is not covered. Care that is required 24 hours a day will not be covered. Other services not covered include personal care provided by home health aides such as bathing and dressing, along with homemaker services like cleaning and laundry. Also not
included are home-delivered meals. If you require care that goes beyond intermittent visits for a limited amount of time, or if your needs are not covered by Medicare, an important option to consider is private duty home care. For more information on Medicare coverage, visit medicare.gov. Information Provided by Family & Nursing Care/Legacy Home Care and adapted from medicare.gov. 121 6/21/18 2:30 PM

Advantage program, you may also have access to additional services such as home visits after a hospitalization. Other Home Care Services Many other care services are provided in the home but are not licensed or paid for by Medicare. An Aging Life Care Manager can help you understand what they can offer, access reputable services, and monitor them on an on-going basis. 122 18-0691-01.indd 122

Non-Medical Aides, Companions and Homemakers There are many types of paid care giving services available—often called non-medical aides, companions and homemakers—who many people hire privately. If you do, you or your family should check at least two work-related references, develop a specific set of tasks and expectations for the caregiver, arrange to pay all appropriate taxes, and have the required insurance coverage. Caregiver services can also be arranged through an agency. While this may cost more per hour than hiring an aide yourself, hiring an agency assures you of coverage

when the aide is sick, on vacation or quits. The agency also carries liability insurance and is responsible for all employment taxes and employee bonding. An Aging Life Care Manager can help you find a reputable agency and get important questions answered, such as: do they check police and driver license records; do they provide supervision; how do they handle cancellations; and how long have they been in business?

ADULT DAY CeNTerS & ServICeS Aging in PlACe
Adult Day Care Providing socialization and care Adult Day Centers are an important option for family caregivers, as they offer socialization, activities, and necessary supervision to those who are socially isolated or need care and assistance. Caregivers can feel confident that their loved one is safe and well cared for while they are at work or performing other necessary tasks. Centers offer a variety of programs and amenities, including exercise programs and a diverse schedule of engaging activities. Assistance with the activities of daily living, including eating, walking, toileting and medication management may also be available. Additionally, many centers offer physical, speech and occupational therapies to their participants. All licensed centers provide nutritious meals and snacks on a daily basis. Choosing a Provider Information on local Adult Day Centers may be available through senior centers, family physicians or the local Area Agency on Aging. After locating nearby providers, call them to request flyers, brochures, calendars and application information. While reviewing this information, pay careful attention to how many years the provider has been in business and their licensures and certifications.
